Mark is the BEST lawyer; he is the only one who told me honestly about expectations from my case. Not only helped me with my temporary parenting plan but also helped me navigate the legal system even in Florida. Only because of his hard work now I have communication with my children. His attention to detail and expertise in the field made all the difference. Mark and his team are hardworking and support their client. Mark’s guidance and support were invaluable. His contributions are priceless, and I am truly grateful for everything he did. Thank you.

Mark is my first lawyer who accept my divorce case and I was involved in a terrible divorce while my ex husband uses every way including the legal system as a way to abuse me and I personally am very depressed. Mark took over and really helped me greatly. I was very confused about which route my life is going and he was patient along the way and fighted my rights with my abusing ex-husband. Due to my own uncertainty of my life and unwillingness to continue the path, Mark and I part way and then I find another lawyer who is not very professional and eventually lost my case. I am very grateful that I had Mark to present me and believe he is the most professional, smart and the best representation for some one who has to go through divorce. Just want to express my sincere thankfulness to Mark and Morgan. And trust me, you will not regret if you hire him if you are also going through legal battle of divorce.

I came to Mark after wasting time with another attorney for the beginning of my case. Mark made me feel secure that he would fight for the things that were important to me. He never dismissed my feelings or made me feel like I was asking too much. He was balanced and gave solid advice from his obvious many years of expertise. I could tell he really knew his way around the block and I felt comfortable that he would guide and support me every step of the way. In the end he made sure I reached a fair settlement and didn't concede too much to my ex. His paralegal Morgan is top-notch as well. She was so organized and made sure I was prepared every step of the way. She was often times pulling my ex's lawyer & team along because they were so disorganized and behind on things. I can't say enough good things about Mark and his team.

I hired Mark Gouras as my divorce lawyer in August of 2021. My divorce was difficult for me. He was welcoming and I felt secure hiring him. I checked around with other lawyers but I'm glad I went with him. Mr. Gouras was professional and I didn't feel swindled or cheated out of my time or money; one of my chief worries when I started looking for a lawyer. My case wasn't straight forward but I felt like I was being represented by someone with more than enough experience. Do not go with just any lawyer. Bad/cheap lawyers will cost you more in the long run when it comes to divorces. I cannot recommend him enough to anyone who needs his services. I came out the other side of this ordeal feeling better than I would've assumed and it was because of him and his paralegal. He absolutely made a positive difference in my life and future prospects.

What a professional and knowledgeable Mark is!He is very honest and trustworthy! He would tell what we can do or we could not win without "probably ".We have met so many lawyers in our life time, but he is unique and exceptional we have ever met! l, without doubt recommend him in all family legal matters!

I hired Mark Gouras as my family law attorney in a complicated child custody/domestic violence case. Mark is an amazing attorney and did wonderful in the courtroom to fight for a protection order and parenting plan that would ensure my son's and my safety. He is a natural in the courtroom and is very professional. He does his research and is extremely well-prepared, knowledgeable, experienced, and organized. I can tell Mark really cares about his clients and he showed kindness and compassion. His paralegal, Morgan is caring and very responsive. She is easy to talk to and she really cares as well. I am so thankful for the outcome in the case, and I couldn't have done it without his dedication and support. I believe Mark is the best attorney out there! I highly recommend him!

Mark has represented me through my divorce, and subsequent hearings and custody battles. I was very thorough in reviewing who I could rely on to support the best interests of my family when initially searching for a Lawyer in my divorce. After meeting with several, I was confident Mark would be someone who would go above and beyond to achieve desired results. Mark is an expert at positioning his clients for success and provides thoughtful direction in being proactive while going through the process. TAKE HIS ADVICE. Mark navigated the divorce process while setting realistic expectations...which he by far exceeded. Post divorce, Mark has been more than an advocate, but helped me through a very complicated custody battle. I assure you, divorce is not always the end of your challenges, you will likely face more on the other side..... and you want an expert that will support you. I cannot recommend Mark highly enough. I owe the success of my situation to his guidance and representation.

He really explained things and what I would realistically be looking at. We designed a plan I felt would grow with my infant into the teenage years. His demeanor was very relaxed and he remained calm while I was stressed, which helped me relax. I felt his knowledge and confidence really alleviated my fears in the whole process.

I don't really know where to start when it comes to Mark. I have had one of the worst cases when it comes to my sons father. My ex is very much a sociopath and this time around, when I realized it was time to take him back to court, I knew I needed a fighter. I knew I needed someone with experience with dealing with a person that will not be factual and my ex is very much that - a lot of words of "this is why I need to get away with things" rather than trying to do the right thing. Mark is strategic, compassionate, and reasonable. When you ask something that he knows is not right, he explains exactly why. He comes with a plan - but, thats not the biggest and greatest thing about him. He DELIVERS the plan. He succeeds. I was so nervous, shaking and convinced once again my sons father would win with his vile words. Nope. Mark stuck to the facts and won. Mark is worth EVERY penny. Also, his assistant Morgan is the loveliest gem. They are a match made in heaven during a time you may feel at unease. Hire Mark. I'll refer him to anyone that will listen if I hear they are going through a rough custody/parenting plan/divorce case. You'll sleep well when you hire him, I promise.

I cannot rave enough about Mark. He was knowledgeable and professional and I trusted his opinion. With so many years of experience, all I wanted was honesty within the process. Mark knew the laws in each county and was able to talk through similar cases and asked probing questions to see exactly where I had options. His paralegal Morgan was so responsive and professional. I cannot thank this dream team enough! They are worth every penny and more. Thank you so much!

Choosing a divorce lawyer is a decision I didn't want to make but had to. It was a decision i didn't take lightly because counsel  represents me and i wanted my lawyer's conduct, argument, presentation, and strategy to reflect how I would try the case. After interviewing and consulting a handful of lawyers, the decision to have Mr. Gouras represent me was an easy one to make. Now that the trial is over and divorce final, I can fully endorse Mr. Gouras for helping me realize all 3 of my legal goals, the primary one being awarded 50/50 custody of my child. A part of the outcome was a function of the facts which Mr. Gouras honestly and candidly assessed during our initial consultation. The next element was his directions to me through the various stages of the divorce process. At times I had certain ideas about what we should do and Mr. Gouras patiently educated me based on his years of experience. Most importantly was how Mr. Gouras used the facts, my conduct during the temporary orders, responding to the other party, and his experience to craft and present compelling arguments before the court.  Mr. Gouras made me feel thoroughly prepared and in control during the 18 month custody battle. Of course we could only control our side of the street but our side was clean. A divorce, like a marriage,ends when one party is done. My case required a judge to tell the other party that it is over. Hopefully your case won't end in trial but be assured that if Mr. Gouras is representing you that he will treat each stage with effective and efficient precision. I have a lot of tattoos and  there is a saying that "Good tattoos aren't cheap and cheap tattoos aren't good". There are lots of parallels between working with an expert custom tattoo artist and an expert divorce attorney but the most obvious one is that the end result is something you will live with for a lifetime. I have no regrets on my choice of tattoo artists or my choice in Mr. Gouras as my lawyer. The divorce (like a tattoo) was painful but I had complete confidence in my professional who turned a scar into a piece of art. Thanks to Mr. Gouras and Ms. Solomon.

If you are getting divorced and looking for a great attorney then your search is over. Mr. Gouras is that topnotch attorney you will need. Mark and his staff gave me all the advantages possible to win in a divorce. His knowledge of family law and his understanding of the court guided me through the maze. He knows what the judges want and how to present your case to them. My case involved two children and disputed property. In the end, I got the time I wanted with my kids and the issue with the property was resolved in my favor. My now ex-wife went through three different attorneys, so I saw some of the possibilities in representation. I witnessed firsthand the importance of having a good lawyer. I am so thankful I chose Mark Gouras as my attorney.
